"Tim came out and took a look at the roof.  I was a little concerned that my roof might need to be replaced because there are slight dips in the roof where the 4'x8' wood has dipped in the middle.  Tim explained that this was due to inadequate venting, causing heat+moisture to collect under the roof.  This moisture then gets into the wood and slightly weakens the board, causing it to dip a little.  He didn't think the roof needed to be replaced but did suggest we consider adding some vents.   His analysis was that there weren't enough vents on the roof, and this was easy to verify comparing my roof to my neighbor's roofs.  In the end, he offered me a couple different options, just replacing the boots, replacing the boots and adding some additional vents.  I went with just the boots for now.  The repair stopped the water from leaking in as it had been.

Garbage Collection FAQs, answered by experts

Once you have your garbage disposal disconnected, you can remove the mounting bracket by unscrewing the bolts that are holding the bracket. You can back them out just enough to pop off the snap ring, which prevents the bottom portion of the bracket from disconnecting from the top when you unscrew the bolts. Use a regular screwdriver to pop off the snap ring, and the rest of the components should fall off by themselves.

If your garbage disposal powers up and you can hear it hum, but the arms inside aren’t moving, the problem might be a stubborn clog, a build-up of grease, or a jam of the impeller plate. To troubleshoot these, ensure your unit is off and disconnected from its power source before checking inside the drain or attempting to manually rotate the impeller arms or plate from the underside of the unit. A hex wrench can help.

Continuous feed garbage disposals are the favorite model for many homeowners for a reason. As opposed to batch feed models, add food scraps to the drain whenever the disposal is running. This variety is also typically less expensive, more convenient, and easier to clean.

The main issue with garbage disposals is clogging. This can mean a clogging of the pipes that expel the food along with water, or a clogging of the mechanical parts themselves. The problem lies in the solution because you can’t easily see clogs if they’re inside the system, and reaching in to dislodge stuck items is a risky proposal. Call a pro and ask what they would do, but if you can’t see the clog easily, and running the unit won’t free it, you need to let a professional handle the fix. 

Garbage disposals are durable appliances that usually last at least eight years as long as you clean and maintain them. It’s relatively rare for a garbage disposal to break on its own, as most malfunctions happen due to user errors, like overstuffing the grinding compartment or damaging the blades by trying to dispose of metal or bone. Eventually, cracks or leaks could develop in the unit, which requires a full replacement.
